repair-
Mr. Butts, otir street commissioner, has
used Rum boots during tbe week wading
in alleys to notify property owners to
clean all filth and debris. He thoroughly
understands his duties, and will fearlessly
carry them out.
The O. R. & N. Co.'s freight trains do
a. rushing business these days, and fre
quently the yard is so crowded with
cars that trains have to wait for others
to pass out before they can unload their
goods.
- There has been universal complaint
about the weather for the past two days ;
but the sun peeped out from the clouds
today and bad a broad, Eastern Oregon
smile on its face, which made every
body happy. . ,
An attempt was made to rob the
saloon of Maetz & Pundt last night ; but

thief walked through the building, but
he was not repaid for his work.
Bands of cattle aggregating ; 3795

A tragedy is reported from M squito

it is supposed, for money. Mayor Wor-
- den thinks it may be a government al
lotting agent. .

Third regiment, O.' N. G-, will be
eqnipped with the Webb cartridge belt,
. . canteens, haversacks, knapsacks and
leggings. In the emergency of a riot
the members will be equipped for im-
. mediate action, and can march to the
scene of conflict at an hour's notice.
The blacksmith shop of Mr. John L.
Thompson was oroken into last night,
and the thieves managed to purloin a
pair of shoes and a crowbar. Mr
Thompson's shoes being of a different
size and suited . to his . broken limb,

The Russian anarchists are work-
ins up a theory that they are re
sponsible for the czar's illness. So
great is their anxiety to be regarded as
terrihla fellows, that they claim to be
. noisoners. It was a reflection on their
skill that the C?sax is dying of an in
herited disease. His grandmother died
of cancer.
Col. Thompson left on the afternoon
train for Hood River, where he will
meet Gen. Compeon and escort him to
the city. . The annual inspection will be

this end he registers hia oath renouncing
allegiance to the king ot Sweden.
Tbe half-mile road west of the Ten-mile
post will be impassible in a few days, and
our county court should attend to the
matter immediately. Tbe fall rains washed
out this highway, and the supervisor of the
district should deyote his attention to the
matter immediately.
All tha legislative tickets in Colorado
haye women candidates, and it ia certain
that a number of women members will help
make the laws at the next session. About
40,000 women have registered. What is
that we beard once on a time abont the
women not wanting to vote?
Portland Sun: J. B. Long of Amity,
formerly proprietor of the Amity Popgun,
the Eugene Broadaxe and another populist
paper at Albany, has made an assignment
for the benefit of his creditors. It is hard
times when a man with a broadaxe and a
popgun can't win.
The Baker City authorities have a pecu
liar way of dealing with the demimonde
class. Several times each year the mem
bers of tbat class are rounded np by the po
lice; and when they are arraigned in tbe
police ludge a court a hne of each is im
posed upon them. Last week tbe amount
of cash in tbe city treasury was increased
$220 by that means.
Several months ago considerable was
said about the swallowing ota bat pin by a
child of Mr. Charles Cannon, rve miles

The pin was working out of the stomach,
into which an incision was made. Tbe

It wss discovered by a protuberance on the
lett sid, at brat thought to be an access.
Salem Statesman: Oregon bids tbe big

other great transcontinental road has en
tered her borders to complete for a portion

Stands ready with open arms to receive the
Chicago Jt Northwestern also, and any and
all o'ber great roans that may come this
way,' not excepting the Oregon Pacific's
easiern connecting link.
Rev. W. O. Curtis who
held tomorrow evening when the gaudy
uniforms of the National Guards will
show to an advantage. Our militiamen
are equal to any in the state, and The
Dalles may feel prond of her representa
tives of the National Guards.
Perry Beal, a well known placer miner,
was shot by a highway robber a few
miles from Butte, Mont., Thursday and
will probably die. Beal and his wile
were en route from the mines in Ger
man gulch, and had a bag in the wagon
containing $2,600 in gold dust. The
highwayman emptied a load of shot in
to Beal's body. Mrs. Beal whipped up
the horses and escaped with the gold.
A posse is in pursuit of the robber.
, D. Casey, of Hilgrade, expects to
leave in a few days for Malheur to look
after developments at the rich quartz
find in which himself and VV. R. Banks
are interested, me ledge was discov
ered by Mr.'Banks and Mr. Casey
bought a half interest for $2,600. Last
week the owners received a proposition
from Ogden for the purchase of the
property for $8,000. Tbie offer was re
fused, as the ore is freS-milling, and
there is no doubt that a small mill will
soon yield many times $8,000. . '
Prof. Henry say? in the Bre'der'
Gaxette that 'wheat which is to be fed ia
cattle or hogs should be rolled lightly
over or crushed, so as to leave it as loose
and light as possible. If ground like
firm if. n-ill lu naatv nnri hMVV. Tn
feeding ground wheat to steers it is
necessary to use care not to overfeed
which will develop scouring. . When
bran is available mis it with the ground
wheat Moistened, cut hay will answer
the same purpose. ; Some feeders secure
good results from ground wheat while
others will have some or all of their
jcattle off feed most of the time..
fossil Journal: As advertised, Mr.
Geo. Chapman of Waldron brought 16
head jof 1.-00 to 1,400 pounds work
horses U town Thursday, for sale by
auction . Next day the sale was started,
with P Buffington as auctioneer.
After the fintft pair . in the bunch, a
ma'ch team oi sorrel mares, had been
sold to Mr. Lee of Pine Creek for $40, Z.
.T. Keys bonght big bay horse for
$22.60, and then the sale came to an
abrupt end for want of bids. Half a
. dozen years ago such horses would have
found a ready sale at front $'00 to $160
each : now they are a drug in the mar
ket. ;
Eugene. Guard: Mr. Norris Humph'
rey informs us that, at present prices,
be can realize $3,600 from his dried
prunes, raised on his 26 acre orchard, a
Jew miles north of Eugene. The trees
are six years old, and have been
thoroughly and intelligently cultivated.
His entire cost for drying, picking and
cultivating will probably amount to be
tween $1,000 and $1,250, leaving the
balance as profit. The fruit business is
certainly a profitable Oiie, when properly
attended to. What is such an orchard
worth? Nearly any farmer can care for
a ten acre orchard and never miss the
time when be is so occupied.
It appears that the ousting of Mrs:
' County Superintendent May, in Tilla
jnook county, was accomplished by. an
avetion in the state circuit court, which
eventuated in a decision that she could
l.M t.hA rtfrtre nnrlpr t.h psinat.itu
tional provision that officials must be
.electors, fcince thai the county court
declared tbe office vacant and has ap
pointed Lester J3mith to the vacancy.
The decision is said to have been ren
dered by Judge Burnett. There seems
to be no disposition to contest the mat.
ter farther. The Union county case,
however, Contestant Carter informs the
Joseph Aurora will be carried up to the
supreme Court.

From ThuctJay Daily.
Tbe streets are muddy from tbe constant
raia during tba past faw days.
fiouf an ia this city next month.,
a
returned this
morning from Grants reports that tbe little
town suffered very much from tne re
cent higbwater. there being hardly a build
ing in tbe lower town which waa left on its
original foundation, and a larger percentage
being awept away or otherwise entirely de
stroyed. Still the little town is np ana at
it again. New and better bnildings are
taking the place of tbe old ones Every
body talks hopefully of the outlook.
Pendleton Tribune: It has long been
conceded thst there was necessity for a
branch asylum in this section, and Onion
was the place, notwithstanding the number
of candidates in the field, was elected by the
commission as I ha most desirable place for
the location of aucb an inatitution, and at
Union the branch asylum will be located.
And now tbat all nbatrnotions to its sptev
construction hsve been removed, it is to be
hoped that work will commence at ooi e.
Developments in tbe express robbery in
this city will implicate some persons in Tbe
Dalles who have been watching the oppor
tunity for some time. Dstecive have been
at work for several dtya, snd they have
wasted no tin.e. Arrests may be made
any time and the persons on whom
the suspicion will rest will be a surprise to
all. The detectives who came from Port
land have dona effective aervice, and tbey
tirmlv believe they know tbe guilty parties,
and tbey will be arrested today or tomorrow.
. Exchange: A retired newspaper man
gives this philosophical reason for quitting
tbe business: "A child is born, the doctor
in attendance get $25; the. editor notes it
and gees 0; it is christened, tbe minister
gets $10; the editor writes it np and gets
00; it marries, the minister gets another
$10; the editor gives a oulnmo puff and
gets 000; in course of time it dies, tbe
doctor gets from $5 to $100; the minister
gets another $6; the undertaker $23 tc $200;
the editor points an obituary and gets 0000
and then the privilege of running free of
charge a card of thanks," and a half column
of "pome." .
The Dalles ia well represented by literary
societies. There is one class consisting of
about fifteen members who are devoting
their time and attention to tbe stady of
English literature, and have chosen the
prejudiced Frenchman, M. Tame, as their
anther. Without a single exception, from
Shaker pears to Shelly, this writer has never
done justice to a single English author.- The
other ia a general literary club, and at
every weekly meeting debate some public
question. Aside from tbe discussion there
is an esssyist and critic These make . a
very enjoyable programme, and one which
will .be both interesting andlentertaining to
the members. .

Horses are dirt cbesp in Eastern Oregoo
now. J. W. Howard, of Prineville, re
cently sold 1500 head of cattle to an Omaha
packing house for two oents on foot, but for
horses he says there ia absolutely no market
the invention of the csble and electric car,
has dispensed with the ue of many horses
in tbe large cities. Io many places of east
ern Oregon horses, be say, have been left to
run wild, and whole droves of good, sound
vonng hones can be bought for $2 00 per
besd, whicb is ..bout what horse bides are
worth.
Ashland Tiding: Heavy freight trains
are now passing through Ashland south
ward daily. The freight consists ot Oregon
products consigned to points in the east
over ths S. P. R. R. mostly bops, canned
salmon and wool. Occasionally a train ill
be heayy enough to require four ordinary
engines to pull it over the Siskiyou moan
tains. The phenomenal barley yield reported of
4,000 bushels raised on 30 acres of ground
by Robert Steel, near Airlie, turns out to
be a fact. The heaviest part of the field, a
piece of less than five acres, could only be
cut with a mower, and 1,400 bushels were
threshed from it. It is a tine grade of
brewing barley, the prsoe of which in
the Portland market is 65 cents per cental.
There is one product of the farm which ia
not cheap this vear, and that product is
potatoes. Tbe demand for them is in
creasing as the winter sets in, and the price
for tbem is steadily on the rise. Washing
ton spnds sell in St. Paul at an advance of
20 cents per bushel over the Minnesota
product, which the Pioneer Press says look
bad and turn black in tbe process of cook
ing. . Wm. Lee. Klickitat county's stock in

The death of Mr. Thomas Cannell Far
gber, one of tbe early settle! s of Eastern
Oregon, is annouuued, having occurred at
Ramsey, Isle of Man, England, last month.
The career of Mr. Fargher was remark
able in many respects. In his earlier years
he wss possessed of s large amount of prop
erty, but through misfortune he lost con
siderable money. He was the only son of
Thomas Faigher, of Ballalayle, Mangbold,
and in tbe course of time succeeded to bis
father's Drooertv. Inheriting from his
father a Dredile;tion for speculation in
floating property he became interested in
shipping to a large extent. On one oocs
sioo, when one of bis vessels was wrecked.
one of bis sons aboard the sloop waa
drowned with all the crew.
In 1870 he emigrated to America and
settled in Oregon, where seyeral of his sons
have now established themselves. He re
mained in this state for .18 years, and dar
ing that time became imbued with a thoi
ougb admiration of this country, its law and
customs.
In 1888 be returned to the land of his
birth, living with his daagbter, but be
always spoke of bis intention to return to
Oregon. During the past few years be has
been interested in establishing bis claim to
a large amount of property in Eogland, to
which be considered bis family entitled
The property is now in tbe chancery . court
ot Eogland, and is valued at nearly 2,
000,000, including intereat for 200 year.
Among these waa William Callow, banian
cd in lobo, who took up bis residence in
London, where Mr. Fargher said be en
gaged in business, and died leaving pro
pnrty to the extent of $200,000. Mr. Far
gher claimed he waa a descendant, upon
bis mother's side of Mr. Callow, and as
sncb was one of tbe heirs to the estate in
chancery. Up to the time of hia death be
bad ample faith in the justneps of his claim
Mr. Fargher, in addition to his daughter
in England, leaves four sons to survive him,
all living in Oregon. Tbey ara Thomas,
Horatio, Alexander and Arthur. Mr.
Alexander Fargher resides in this city and
is engaged in the stock business, the re
maining brothers living in Eastern Oregon,

About 8 30 o'clock tbe minister's little 6
year old daughter was sitting at a window,
looking out upon the starry night. She
leaned over a little too far, aa the train was
turning a curve, and fell ont of the window.
The train waa runniog at a speed of 25
miles an hour, and as the accident was ob
served by a number of the occupants in the
car, it created a atartliog aeosation, which
was soon spread the entire length of tbu
train. Tbe train was stopped aa quickly as
possible, and everybody expected to find
mangled corpse. To the surprise ot those
who went in aearcb of the child, tbe was

she was not hurt.

There were two members ef tbat num

inebriates before the recorder this morn
ing They were arrested by the police
force last night, and had dozed the hours
away within tbe enclosure of prison walls.
This morning tbey did not give evidence
of much intoxication ; but, from the gleam
of eye and the nervous movement of hand
it was very evident they had drank deeep
from ,the "maddening howl." The re
corder was good -natured ; he smiled as
he viewed the prisoners, . and, in tones
which might have been more appropriate
with Caezar when he ordered his legions
onward to conquest against a 1 brave and
defiant foe, fined the two nnfortunates $5
apiece. "This world is all a fleeing
show for man's delusion given," was
emphaticallp expressed by the . unfortu

road through this "wilderness of woe"
with a keener susceptibility to the virtues
of soberness and the vices of intoxica

-H. D, McUuire, fish aod game- warden,
was to Roseburg several days last week on
official business. He same op to see about
tbe construction of a fish ladder at tbe dam,
and was assured by tha owners tbat suit
able arrangements to enable salmon to get
oyer tbe dam wonld be made at once. Now,
if Mr. McUuire would only sea to it that
tbe salmon get op the river this far he will
greatly oblige many people who haye for
the past month been anxiously awaiting the
fall rau. Some people think tbe river ia
blocked with nets and seines which effec
tually prevent any salmon getting np this
far. At any rate those interested say there
are no fish of any kind io tbe river at present,

' The inauguration of Democratic tariff
reform has had direct and indirect ef
fects upon all markets, but none has de
clined so much as those for wool and
sheep. In this line we copy the follow
ing from the Cincinnati Tribune: Within
one year after the incoming of the Cleve
land administration the number of sheep
in . Licking county had been reduced
more than ten thousand. Now . the
farmers are selling their wool-bearers as
last as they can get rid of them and at
whatever price they will bring. The
finest Merinoes are selling at 65 cents to
$1 a head, Oue can buy for $1 a piece
more fine sheep than he can drive away.
Just the other day there was a 'sale of
sheep on a farm near Pataskala. The
stock was auctioned off in lots of a dozen
each. The bidding started off with an
offer of 6 cents a dozen. It ended at
$4 50 a dozen, and the sheep sold at
that. ; i
Tha Brownlee Bo jr.
The Creswell correspondent of the Eugene
Guard says:. Tbe Browlee boy who killed
Mslinda Grobe at tbe Harrisbnrg bop yard,
baa lately been seen prowling around in
thia viotnity carrying a Spencer rifle. He
stopped a few days at J. B. Cruzan's, and
while there accidentally discharged bis gun
ao near a little girl's feet that the flying
gravel ont the blood from tbe child's bare
legs. : If the boy is only eleven years old as
wss represented at his trial, it seems
strange tbat no inqniriea are being made
aa to bis whereabouts and doings. People
who bnog np boys so tbat they are unsafe
among other children should be compelled
either te'kaep them at borne or send tbsm
to the reform school where the state " may
try to do for them what their parents should
have done before. If this boy commits an
other deed of that kind be will not get off
aoeasy as in the. first case. He has the ap
pearance of being at least 14 years of age,
but is too young still to be allowed to run
at large with a gun.

From Charles W. Mason who is down

that there is muoh uneasiness felt by the
miners of tbat section occasioned by the
continued absence of Pat Gleasoa, who left
the Golden Rala mine for Hanover last
Friday, since which time his whereabouts
are nnkngwn.
The only solution to fhs njystary offered
is that Mr. Gltaon lost bis way and
wandered down in one of the deep canyons,
became exhausted, a heavy tall of anow

Herman Oelrichs Stronger Than Sandow,
William Stelmvay a Giant.
I know of four men who do not
pose as sons of Hercules, and who
never made a penny by spectacular
exhibitions, who, I think, could hold
their own with the quartet of for
eign invadess, Sandow, Samson, At
tila and Romulus, in trials of
strength. These men are Herman
Uelrichs, principal owner of the
North German Lloyd Steamship com
pany; Tea Merchant Harry Buer-
meyer, Editor William B. Curtis and
Piano Manufacturer William Stein-
way. Of these Herman Oelrichs,
millionaire and clubman, is .the
strongest, and stronger, I firmly be
lieve, than Sandow or any of the oth
er professional strong men.
Two of these men, too, could come
very near to giving Corbett or Jack-
eon a trouncing in the squared circle
Oelrichs and Buermeyer. Both of
these gentlemen were adjudged by
competent experts fully capable of
holding their own; even with the
mighty John L. Sullivan when that
renowned gladiator was in his prime.
If theycould do this with the Bos
tonian, they might go a shade better
with the Californian or Australian.
Of this "big four," as I will call them,
three Uelrichs, Buermeyer and Cur
tiswere and are as good all around
heavy weight athletes as this or any
other country has ever seen. The
fourth, Stein way, despite his 48 years,
can perform downright feats of
Btrength not juggling tricks that
any of the professional strong men
would find it hard to duplicate.
Once, on a wager with friends at a
private trial, Oelrichs entered a lion's
cage, and properly accoutered for the
fray, of course, actually overcame
and reduced to a state of exhaustion
by his physical resources a full grown
monarch of the jungle. The lion was
muzzled with a plain leather strap,
but waa not hampered in any other
way. Oelrichs thus did better than
Sandow, who only dared recently .to
try with a tame and crippled old lion
at San Francisco.
When John L. Sullivan was in his
prime 10 years ago, knocking out
men nightly in four rounds on hia
exhibition tours, Oelrichs offered to
meet the great Bostonian in private
and give him $10,000 if he (Oelrichs)
did not best him. Sullivan was not
one whit afraid, but as he was mak
ing $100,000 a year just then he lis
tened to the voice of his manager,
the famous sportsman, Al Smith, and
determined to take no chances, much
to Oelrichs' chagrin..
Father Bill Curtis and Buermeyer
rank next to Oelrichs as strong men.
Another "strong man" in private
life is tiiovanm if. Morosini. In early
life he was a sailor before the mast.
He is over 50 years of age, yet he is a
perfect Hercules in strength. Wil

They Were All Off.
There was a man going up the east
side of Brush, street the other day as
another man was coming down on
the west side on the same block.
Both had their heads down and look
ed mad. As they came opposite they
halted and looked at each other, and
pretty soon the east side man growled
out:
I can punch your blamed head in
just one minute."
"And I can knock yours off m half
a minute," replied the other. .
"Don't stand there looking at me.
but go on." -
"IH go on when I get ready."
Just then a policeman came out of
the alley and took in the situation
and asked:
"Now, then, what's the matter
here?"
"Why," said the east side man. "I
was coming along here with the
toothache and that galoot looked at
me so mean that I was just going to
punch his head."
And I was coming along with a
splitting old headache," added the
other, "and that feller stuck out his
tongue and come near being smashed
for it."
"Gentlemen," said the officer aa
he spat on his hand and drew his
club, "I've got three corns on the
right foot and four on the left, and
all are aching like 60 miles an hour.
